Texas City boy approached by stranger at bus stop

Texas City authorities are warning students to be careful after a boy waiting for a bus reported that a man had tried to grab him.

It happened 7:10am Tuesday at a bus stop at the corner of 19th Street North and 1st Avenue North. A Kohfeldt Elementary student said a man approached him and grabbed him by the arm.

The Texas City Police Department thoroughly investigated the reported attempted abduction and their completed investigation concluded that the threat was unfounded. However, stranger danger is very real. Authorities remind parents to continue to talk to children about their personal safety. ___________________________________________________________
